MOSCOW, April 2. /TASS/. There has been no response from Washington to the attacks by the Ukrainian army on Russian energy facilities so far, Russian Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, responding to a question from TASS.

"So far, there has been no reaction to such actions by the Kiev regime," Peskov said.

He advised turning to the Foreign Ministry with a question about a diplomatic reaction. "As for the responses, everything that lies with the Foreign Ministry, you'd better ask the Foreign Ministry," he said.

Earlier, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said that the list of violations had been handed over to US National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Russia’s representatives in the UN and the OSCE, "so that they in their work would present concrete facts demonstrating what the word of the Ukrainian authorities is worth."
